Sam Vimes fought an ancient mind-controlling spirit and won. Sam Vimes killed a werewolf with his bare hands. Sam Vimes happily wears the awful lumpy itchy socks his wife knits him. Sam Vimes causes traffic jams in order to be home in time to read his baby a bedtime story. Sam Vimes fought at the barricades— twice. Sam Vimes waited until his interviewee had left and then put his coat over his head so no one could hear him laughing hysterically at her silly name. Sam Vimes is my hero.

Sam Vimes overcame a crippling alcohol dependency. Sam Vimes examines and confronts his internal prejudices. Sam Vimes lived in poverty because he was giving his salary to the widows and orphans of fellow officers. Sam Vimes cleaned up a corrupt police force and made it inclusive of the different ethnicities in his city.

Sam Vimes is my hero too.

He turned to leave, then seemed to have a thought. “Sergeant Dorfl!” he said, turning back. “D’you think you’ll believe in gods now?”

Every eye in the Watch House turned to the golem sergeant. “Not Gods, Yet.” said Sergeant Dorfl. “But Always Sam Vimes.”

Sam Vimes once violated his country’s foreign policy to help a group of frightened women, who then launched a cultural revolution.

I wish Sam Vimes were real so I could hug that man.

I have so fucking many Sam Vimes feels it is fucking ridiculous.

One time Sam Vimes went on a vacation. While away, the entire Watch except for Corporal Colon went on strike, leaving no law enforcement of any kind for a period of time. The entire criminal population of Ank Morpork decided to take a break from crime, because they knew that if anything disastrous happened while he was away, Sam Vimes would be very, very irritated with whoever was responsible. And none of them dared to be responsible.

“May I make an observation, my lord?”

“Of course you may,’ said Vetinari, watching Vimes walk through the palace gates.

“The thought occurs, sir, that if Commander Vimes did not exist, you would have had to invent him.”

I’m making a point to read more and Pratchett comes up alot. What is the title of this/these promising books for me?

faejilly

You can never go wrong with Pratchett’s Discworld. <3 It is not a series you have to read in publication order as there are very few direct sequels (plus the first two are riffing off a very specific style of fantasy and they don’t hold up as well as the rest of them) but the world does grow and adapt a lot over the years so some attempt at chronological order can be helpful for context.

Vimes is from the City Watch series of Discworld books. The first one is Guards! Guards! (Vimes is not actually the main/POV character – but it is where he and his Watch are introduced, so it’s the best place to start for his books.)

vasheden

The first books were made into a two-part TV movie featuring Sean Astin, Tim Curry, and Christopher Lee. I’d definitely suggest watching that at least. (They were the first ones I read, and I liked them a lot, but I also read a lot of the parodied sort of fantasy in middle school.)

“I could fix him” “I could make him worse” well I could give him two silver candlesticks to help him become an honest man and send him on a path to redemption
